I backed the initial timing down to 12 degrees (it was @ 18) and raised the fuel level in the secondary float bowl and the problem is much less pronounced. I have not driven it much because of the weather so I am not sure if that fixed it for good!
The QFT carb says that the float levels should be 3/4 up the sight glass. My rear bowl was only 1/3 way up until I moved it!
